Microneedling

Microneedling, skin rejuvenation and collagen stimulation

Microneedling is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment designed to improve overall skin texture, tone, and firmness by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. Using a device with ultra-fine needles, controlled micro-channels are created within the skin to encourage repair and regeneration. This treatment can help improve fine lines, acne scarring, enlarged pores, pigmentation, and dull or uneven skin texture. We also offer advanced skin boosters and polynucleotides alongside microneedling to further hydrate the skin, stimulate collagen, and enhance overall results. Performed by experienced clinicians using medical-grade technology and premium products. Suitability is carefully assessed at consultation.

What is microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that works by creating tiny controlled micro-injuries within the skin using very fine needles. This process stimulates the skin’s natural healing response, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin for smoother, firmer, and healthier-looking skin.

Microneedling is commonly used to improve skin texture, fine lines, acne scars, pigmentation, enlarged pores, and overall skin quality. We can also combine treatment with skin boosters or polynucleotides to deeply hydrate the skin and further support collagen stimulation and skin regeneration. The result is brighter, smoother, and more refreshed-looking skin with minimal downtime.

Why choose microneedling?

A natural approach to skin rejuvenation that works with your skin’s own healing response to improve overall skin quality. Common concerns we address:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles — Support smoother, firmer-looking skin.
  • Acne scarring — Help improve the appearance of uneven texture and post-acne marks.
  • Pigmentation and sun damage — Encourage a brighter, more even complexion.
  • Enlarged pores — Refine skin texture and overall appearance.
  • Dull or tired-looking skin — Restore glow, hydration, and skin vitality.

Your journey to healthier skin

Our approach to every microneedling patient:

  • 1

    Consultation and skin assessment — Your skin concerns and goals are carefully assessed to create a personalised treatment plan.

  • 2

    Skin preparation — The skin is cleansed and prepared prior to treatment to ensure comfort and safety.

  • 3

    Microneedling treatment — A medical-grade microneedling device is used to create controlled micro-channels within the skin, stimulating collagen and skin renewal. Skin boosters or polynucleotides may also be applied to enhance hydration and rejuvenation.

  • 4

    Course of treatments — A course of treatments is usually recommended, typically 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, depending on your skin concerns and desired results.

What is the difference between microneedling and skin boosters?

Microneedling stimulates collagen and skin renewal by creating controlled micro-channels in the skin. Skin boosters deeply hydrate and improve skin quality from within. The two can be combined for enhanced results — suitability is assessed at consultation.

How many sessions are needed?

A course of 3–6 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, is usually recommended. Your treatment plan is tailored to your skin concerns and goals at consultation.

When will I see results?

An immediate glow is often noticeable within a few days. Texture, tone, and firmness improvements build progressively over 4–6 weeks as collagen production is stimulated, with continued improvement across the full course.

Is there any downtime?

Mild redness and sensitivity are normal and typically settle within 24–48 hours. You can usually return to daily activities the same day, with specific aftercare guidance provided.

How long do results last?

Results typically last 4–6 months. Maintenance sessions every few months help sustain collagen stimulation and overall skin quality.
